Men and Hobbies


For those men who want to spruce up their lives and develop new hobbies, a magazine can be a great way of getting ideas. Learn how to get started with fishing: it can be a real bonding experience between generations – grandfather, father and son – that can hold families together for years.  A magazine will also tell you about potential fishing costs: rod, reel and bait, add up to around $50 with a fishing license priced at about $15.

Another way a father can bond with his son is by becoming a coach.  Find out what sport your son enjoys and see if you can coach the team.  Then there is pool or snooker which is another great way of bonding with one’s buddies, and having some man-on-man time.

Activities for the Elderly


Often times these days, with all the trappings of the modern world, the elderly find themselves isolated and alone.  Perhaps it is hard for them to get out or a lot of their friends have moved away or passed on, but whatever it is, they end up quite lonely.  One way to try to counter this, is by developing new hobbies.  Just because one is somewhat housebound, does not mean that they have to spend all their time like zombies, in front of the television. The National Publishers Exchange offers a variety of magazine titles that specialize in crafts and hobbies.  These do not have to be too extraneous activities – just something fun and easy like playing chess or becoming a mentor; writing stories or going for recreational parks.
What’s most important is to avoid spending too much alone doing nothing.  That can become very depressing and also exacerbate the isolated feeling.
